visibility: hidden does hide the content from screen readers the same as display:none does.

You're hiding the submenu's using this .p7TBMsub { position: absolute; visibility:hidden; left: 0; top: 0; width: 100%; } But then you're forgetting that the 100% width is being combined with the padding and therefore forcing your page out by 210px. You could take my original suggestion and remove the padding but the better suggestion would be just to remove the width: 100%; You're applying it to a block element which by default is 100% anyway but by not applying it, the width will take into consideration the other padding you're applying automatically. So, change your code to this and it should work ;o) .p7TBMsub { position: absolute; visibility:hidden; left: 0; top: 0; } Although, I'm not sure whether using visibility: hidden; will be bad for screenreaders as I know display: none; will and you're doing a similar thing so you may be better going for the suckerfish menu approach where you position the hidden menu using offscreen negative positioning. http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/ But that's a different matter altogether. Hope that helps. - - - - - - - - - - Dave Woods http://www.dave-woods.co.uk On 24/10/2007, Dave Woods <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Dean, > > Not sure what these two styles are actually doing but it looks like > they're the cause within your menu.css > > #p7TBMsub03 { padding: 0 0 0 150px; } > #p7TBMsub04 { padding: 0 0 0 210px; } > > Removing them seems to fix the problem with no adverse effect. > > Cheers > Dave > > - - - - - - - - - - > Dave Woods > http://www.dave-woods.co.uk ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
